A couple of weeks ago, I checked the price of a flight going from Basel to Chicago. I plan on going back in early May, so I figured there was no hurry and I just decided to put it off a couple of weeks.
Boy, am I glad I did.
Today, I checked again, and...the fare is nearly 10% lower than it was 2.5 weeks ago. Should I book now, or should I wait even longer? Hmmmm....
Prices are dropping! This economic crisis RULES!!!*
*trying to stay upbeat!

Another Step Closer To The Urn...
...or is it farther?
I brought King in for his annual check-up this past Wednesday. All in all, this trip to Dr. Boozer's office was rather uneventful; unlike last year when he dropped a bomb in his crate just before returning home.
Dr. Boozer gave King a blood test, and I called yesterday morning for the results and...
...EVERYTHING IS COMPLETELY NORMAL!
Sheesh! I mean, I'm not hoping that King dies a horrible death or anything, but...
HOW LONG CAN THIS BEAST GO ON??? HE'S NEARLY 20.5 YEARS OLD!!!
OK...I guess I fudged that a bit. He does continue to have his thyroid issue...so at least there's hope for his demise at some point in the next decade (Did I say that out loud?), but Dr. Boozer had to send some blood to a lab for that test so I didn't get the results until today. And...the verdict?
I need to up his thyroid medicine...or maybe I won't...Mwaaaaah-ha-haaaaa (STOP THAT!)!
Great! Not only is the beast going to live forever, but...he's going to begin costing us even MORE money than he does now. I had just calculated that he costs us CHF 135 (about $115) per month just for food, medicine, and kitty litter. If you add in the visits to the vet...jeez...I don't even want to think about it. Doesn't he know that there's an economic crisis goin' on, for Chris'sake?
That crisis thing's still going on, right?
